The card I am sharing today is created using a new product, available in 2 days, as a demonstrator, we get to pre-order before the catalog is released to customers which is one of the perks of being a demonstrator.  This stamp set is so sweet, like part of the name says.  The little Koloa is so cute, do you not agree?

My card base is my usual Basic White card stock with mats of Cajun Craze and Old Olive card stock.  The background panel is one I created making my own SSP (Shirley’s Specialty Paper).  I used Old Olive, Granny Apple Green, and Mossy Meadow ink to create it.  It makes a great background.

I stamped in Smoky Slate ink an image from the Stampin’ Up! Wild & Sweet stamp set. Stampin’ Blends Markers in Old Olive, Cajun Craze, and Crumb cake are used to color the image.  The greeting is from Stampin’ Up! Special Moments stamp set and is stamped in Cajun Craze ink. Rustic Metallic Adhesive Back Dots are popped on the art panel around the image.

The art piece is double matted using Cajun Craze and Old Olive card stock.  A length of Cajun Craze twine is wrapped around this piece and a fake knot is created.  I know this doesn’t look very Cajun Craze in the picture and I can’t explain it. The piece is then popped over the background panel using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Another panel of the SSP and a strip of Cajun Craze and Old Olive card stock is used as an accent for the background panel.  A sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Special Moments stamp set is stamped in Old Olive ink on a panel of Basic White card stock and adhered to the background using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

A medium Basic White envelope gets stamped on the envelope flap with my own special DSP stamp using Old Olive ink.
